...Teach for America. While in the classroom I received my Masters in Education from the University of Missouri, St. Louis. I now work for a STEM non-profit, combining my passion for education with my skills in public relations.

I am most passionate about English and reading; however, I am willing...

...a year and beyond. I remain open for shorter commitments especially if there is a catch up concern due to a slip. The urgency for tutoring at the last minute prior to testing or graduation is concerning. To avoid wasting your time and mine, I refrain from such practices. My time is as valuable as yours and your child's. I am a "big kid at heart" with a warm smile and present myself as easy-going,...

Teaching is a lifelong process of learning about new philosophies and new strategies, learning from the parents and community, learning from colleagues, and especially learning from the children. Children have taught me to open my mind and my heart to the joys, the innocence, and the diversity of ideas in the world. Because of this, I will never forget how to smile with the new, cherish the old, and laugh often.... Communicate with the parents and...

...elementary school ESOL teacher for three years and I'm just now starting my graduate program at Webster University. I worked with students in third through sixth grade, again in varying settings of one on one, in small groups, and whole class.

I feel comfortable taking subject matter with which the student is struggling and slowing down or taking novel approaches...

I live for the "Ah-Ha!" moment! Math, Science, and Reading don't have to be boring! Let me show you how you can learn and have FUN at the same time!

...teach all four subjects needed to pass those exams. Four years of high school knowledge seems like an overwhelming amount to tackle. But unlike exams you may have taken in the past, the tests don't want memorization of times and places but the use of evidence to answer questions and draw conclusions. The math is around 55% algebra so that might need some review, but it is mostly Algebra 1 and, I promise, is manageable....

...Secondary Education or Educational Studies. Even though I am a freshman, I am taking many upper level classes and love exploring my passion for history.

...I go. I made it through Saint Louis University by teaching others, which I found made sure that I was actually learning the material as well. I believe there is no impossible subject and I have the patience to work with anyone willing to work with me.

With regards to tutoring, I have worked with students in small groups, individually, face-to -face and remotely.

Learning is what goes on inside one's head and teaching is what goes on outside! In my experience this is true across ages and geography and subject matter. However, the tutor plays a critical role in success with the student. I believe it is the confluence of the relationship between the tutor and the student, the tutor's subject matter knowledge, and the methodology utilized that realizes the outcome.
